Hai Phong to feature three craft villages at the global village craft preservation and development festival
The first Global Village Craft Preservation and Development Festival 2026, themed "Bringing Together the Cultural Identities of Craft Villages – Connecting Global Excellence", is scheduled to take place in Ha Noi from November 13 to 16. Hai Phong will participate in the festival with three traditional craft villages: Chu Dau pottery village in Thai Tan Commune, Xuan Neo embroidery village in Dai Son Commune, and Thanh Lieu woodblock carving and printing village in Tan Hung Ward.

Chu Dau pottery is one of Vietnam's premium traditional ceramic lines, with a history spanning nearly 600 years. Its distinctive features are reflected in its shapes, glaze colors, and intricate decorative patterns, which embody the nation's cultural identity.

"To make thorough preparations for the upcoming event, we have commissioned the design of new product lines featuring distinctive patterns inspired by Hai Phong City. This will help promote the Chu Dau brand to domestic and international visitors."

Xuan Neo hand-embroidery village dates back to the early 20th century. Over more than a century of development, local artisans have created exquisite embroidered products, ranging from everyday household items to artistic embroidered paintings, which have earned high recognition from domestic and international consumers.

For this festival, I have selected a wide range of products, including our most intricately crafted pieces. In addition to embroidered paintings, I will also bring along a team of highly skilled workers and artisans to demonstrate embroidery on fabric, allowing visitors to see firsthand the meticulous and delicate needlework of our craftspeople."

Another participant in this year's festival is Thanh Lieu woodblock carving and printing village. The village is renowned not only for its sophisticated woodblock carving techniques but also for producing many valuable traditional printing blocks.

Through a series of exhibitions, exchange activities, investment promotion and tourism initiatives, the festival aims to connect Vietnamese craft villages with international partners, helping promote the value of traditional handicrafts and foster the development of rural industries.
